Pros

The one pro about working at 4STAR was that it was a very fast paced environment with adepquate software to enter orders. The day went by fast and all you literally had to do was pick up the phone when it rang,quote and take an order. Then there was someone to do everything else. Which brings me to the cons...

Cons

Where do I begin with the cons? There were so many. To start with there was absolutely no consistency with what was said and what was done with this company. Employees were constantly berrated and spoken down to. Like it was a gift to work there. They are extremely management top heavy with significant salaries with none of these personnel doing any actually selling or real work for that matter, so if you are interested in a sales job, those profits are mostly going to them and not in your commission. There are people doing other people's jobs and managers managing management. The micromanaging is excruciatingly painful. There is a reason they are constantly recruiting. Oh and they pride themselves on being 420 friendly, so if that's your bag then maybe this is the place for you.

Pros

One of the best small businesses to work for in Orange County. Definitely a good place to work if you aren't experienced in the workforce. It was my first full time job and the benefits and perks were very generous along with friendly ownership. Would recommend to any one seeking work experience and to move into related industry/field or a full time job with benefits. Great stepping stone for a novice professional. Great Holiday parties, Friendly Staff. Looks great on you resume if you are looking in to an Aerospace/Tech/Manufacturing kind of Job in Southern California. They will send you to great trade shows and training seminars too.

Cons

It's a great place to gain knowledge and experience but with that being said not place to be forever because there is a lack of room to grow with in the company. The company is a great place to be. Just some people aren't fortunate enough to report to people that actually support them. It is a small company so it's really hard to inspire and innovate in a microcosmic atmosphere. In the six years I worked there I had great experience with all my colleagues except with one individual. That individual ended up being my supervisor toward the end. Overall the experience wasn't that bad, but at times if felt like this individual was a very ineffective leader and poor communicator.

Pros

You won't find pros here.

Cons

Employees of 4 Star Electronics are always exhausted due to the never-ending barrage of tasks and workloads thrown by the leadership. We're unsurprisingly overworked, yet we also receive a salary that is mediocre at best. The benefits are lackluster, and our supervisors couldn't be bothered to provide proper support.
